Loved by The Royal Sonesta Kauai Resort Lihue guests
"Hands-down, the best swimming pool of all the islands."
"The pool is huge with five hot tubs (great kids pool with rock slide that is completely separate) lots & lots of loungers."
"We even went to other hotels we considered in preparation for a trip back to Kauai, and safe to say, we made the right booking decision!"
"The resort was very nice."
"The beach was an easy walk from the hotel."
“The beachfront location and updated rooms are a winning combination. I particularly like the pool area with waterslides; it makes this resort ideal for families. With multiple dining options and easy access to island exploration, I can recommend it for couples or business travelers, too.”
